Meredith Wealth Planning is a flat-fee financial planning firm. That means that clients pay a consistent flat fee of $6,000 each year for our services. This fee is billed monthly in arrears either from client’s accounts or bank accounts.
The flat annual fee includes discretionary portfolio management, ongoing investment recommendations on accounts that cannot be held under our management, as well as financial planning services. You can read about our investment philosophy here.

A detailed explanation of our investment philosophy can be found on this page.
Meredith Wealth does not have a minimum account size since our firm does not bill clients based on the size of their portfolio. Every situation is unique; however, we are cognizant of the $6,600 annual fee and its impact on a client’s overall financial plan. We encourage anyone interested to schedule an introductory call and we can discuss if we are a good fit.
Before any changes are made to your existing investments, we first analyze the positions in detail and provide an outline of what advice we would recommend should you become a client. We custody client assets at Charles Schwab & Co.
Our flat annual fee of $6,600 is all-encompassing meaning that there is no limit to how many times we meet or talk each year. Generally, we have 2 meetings each year for review of investment performance and financial topics. Some years have more contact due to life events occurring.
Neither Mark nor Scott have any disciplinary actions or complaints against them while serving clients over the years. You can check their backgrounds using the SEC Investment Advisor website.
